Anyone actually play Death or Purity affinity? Here's my take on the two: Death More dps, less mana cost, when in death stance, but all heals are severely weakened. In theory could be effective healers by simply switching stance. Purity Essentially a normal cleric but highly effective vs undead, which could be useful in some dungeons such as Graystone (if I remember correctly... been a while since I played last) Also, why don't people change affinities based on what they're doing rather than just pick one and stick with it the entire time? You can switch affinities at any time with the only one costing money to "forget" being Purity... Just takes some time to get to the people to change... You could be Death/War if you're solo, Purity if you group up for a dungeon with lots of undead, and then Preservation/Peace for raiding or more intense group heals...
I think you'd have to re-get all your unique abilities when you switch affinities, so not really practical. I'm a Death cleric and like the spiritual damage from Death's Kiss II. Go into Deathbringer's Mien stance on burns when there are enough heals and switch stance/consecration if there is trouble. Not enough endgame bosses are undead to justify Purity, I think, except in Old Targonor.
